Hide list address?
by Ricardo Kleemann Nov. 16, 2023

Nov. 16, 2023

Hi, Is there any way to configure Mailman such that, for an announcement-only type list, when a message is sent to the list, the To: shows the member's address, rather than the list address? Some list software allows the ability to hide the list address itself, so that address is not advertised. I couldn't find any configuration specific to that.

Add "sender's name/email" to BODY of mail as header?
by Mal Feb. 16, 2021

Feb. 16, 2021

I want all mails sent to the list to come from the list's email address... But, in this case, if the user forgets to sign their name at the bottom of their mail body, effectively the mail to the list is anonymous...! Is there a way to add the user name (or email address) to the top of each mail so that the mails have the name of the sender, while the mail itself comes from the list address? I have looked high and low for an answer, but noone seems to have the solution. Thank you! Mal

Setting MIME as default for new Non-Digest subscribers
by Steve Reiter July 31, 2011

July 31, 2011

Hi - I have searched FAQ and archives to find an answer. Hoping you can help. I have a new list (with previously imported addresses) for announcements only, and wish these announcements to be received immediately. I set the defaults to allow non-digest and to not allow digest. I wish to send out announcements in html, and so wish to make the default for new subscribers be MIME. While I see a setting under Digest Options (MIME_is_Default_Digest), I don't see any equivalent option under … [View More]

When authorizing a moderated list posting is it possible to change the date/time on the outgoing authorized list message to the time it was approved instead of the message showing the time it was first received by mailman? Thanks Paul

Where is the template for monthly password reminders?
by Michael R Boudreau July 21, 2010

July 21, 2010

Where can I find the template for the monthly password reminder email? I'd like to modify it so that it doesn't contain the password (our members object to this being sent unbidden in plain text), and so that it reminds users to make sure their subscription address matches the address from which they currently send email (ideally with a link to their personal options page so they can update). -- Michael R.

Uncaught runner exception: regular_exclude_lists
by Adam Nielsen June 2, 2010

June 2, 2010

Hi all, I've followed the FAQ to move some lists across to a new server, but now on the new machine any message posted to a list gets passed to Mailman and then disappears.

not really an umbrella?
by Gruver, Sandi Feb. 25, 2010

Feb. 25, 2010

Mailman 2.1.5 on RedHat Linux - How can I set up a new list that sends to multiple existing lists - but only sends one message to each person - even if the person is a member of multiple lists? a. LSOFT calls this a "superlist" b. Can "Mailman" do this? c. In this case, we have a system newsletter that will be sent to multiple lists. I'd like people to receive the message only once, even if they are on more than one of the lists included in the mailing. Thank you, … [View More]

Help?
by Lark Burger Jan. 28, 2010

Jan. 28, 2010

I've done something stupid, and I don't know how to get out of it. I'm a moderator for the Knittingbeyondthehebrides group and I've accidentally banned a member. I was half-awake and accidentally clicked on the "permanent ban" button instead of approving her. Now I can't figure out how to get around that and approve the poor woman. Can you help? Is it possible to remove the ban from your end so that I may approve the membership? Lark Burger
